� Exercises—The exercises include detailed step-by-step instructions and are required. The

exercises cover the core information needed to meet the lab objectives.

� Additional Tasks—The additional tasks are listed at the end of an exercise and provide tasks that

you can perform to extend your learning about the product. The additional tasks do not provide

step-by-step instructions, but they are similar to the steps that you performed in the exercises. The

additional tasks are optional, but it is recommended that you complete them to gain a fuller

understanding of the product.

Computers This lab uses three virtual machines performing the following roles:

� 3370A-3374A-SEA-DC1

• Domain controller

• Exchange server

� 3370A-3374A-SEA-SRV1

• Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Web front-end and application server

• Database server

� 3370A-3374A-SEA-CL1

• 2007 Microsoft Office system client

Estimated time to complete this lab: 90 minutes

Virtual Lab Console This lab makes use of the Microsoft Virtual Lab Program, an application that allows you to run

multiple virtual machines online. During the lab, you will switch between different windows, each

containing a separate virtual machine running Microsoft Windows Server™ 2003 or Microsoft Windows® XP.

Before you start the lab, familiarize yourself with the following basics of the Virtual Lab Console:

� To switch the focus for your mouse and keyboard to the virtual machine, click inside the virtual

machine window.

� To remove the focus from a virtual machine, move the mouse pointer outside the virtual machine

window.

� To issue the CTRL+ALT+DELETE keyboard combination inside a virtual machine,

use RIGHT-ALT+DELETE instead. Virtual PC designates the RIGHT-ALT key as the Host key.

� Select the machine you wish to perform tasks on by selecting it in “My Machines”

To Start the Lab Before you can perform any of the lab exercises, you must log on to the computer. If an error

message warns you that the disk’s parent appears to have been modified, click OK to continue. This

error message appears when you move Virtual PC images between computers with different time-zone settings.

Note These demonstrations have been developed using beta software. If a specific task results

in an error message or a time-out screen, try performing the task again. The task will most likely be completed successfully at the second attempt.

Exercise 1: Using Content Types Content types are a feature that is used extensively in Office SharePoint Server 2007. A content

type defines metadata that can be collected about a document to make document management

easier. Many predefined content types are included with Office SharePoint Server 2007, but you

can also create content types to suite your own specialized needs. In this exercise, you create an

enterprise document library, create a content type, create a new document from a content type, and use the document information panel.

Task 1-1: Creating a Managed Document Repository A managed document repository is designed for managing a large number of documents. Document

management features are automatically enabled. In this task, you learn how to create a managed document repository.
